Avatar Illustrated

Published by Avatar Press in 1998–1999, Avatar Illustrated was a two-issue anthology series showcasing the early work of writer/artist Eric Powell alongside Mike Wolfer. The book served as a platform for experimental short stories and character pieces, offering a glimpse into the raw, unpolished style that would later define Powell's career. Though brief, it remains a notable artifact of Avatar's early lineup, capturing a moment when the publisher was cultivating emerging horror and dark fantasy talent.
